I moved house around 6 weeks ago, we moved from a new property with a brand new fully kitted out bosch kitchen and new boiler (ecp rating c) to a 100 year old house (ecp rating d), our new house doesn't have a cooker but we need to remodel the layout and save for this so in the interim I have a slow cooker, a countertop hallogen oven, microwave and an electric hob (no proper oven). The water pressure is dire so we are literally in the shower for 5-8 minutes at the most daily. I have been waiting for my G&E bill, sending meter readings every 2 weeks as I have been concerned as we were generally using around £180 a month in the other house and was concerned moving to a bigger, older house would mean a huge bill, both me a DH work from home mainly so we're using appliances daily but carefully. If we're cold we will try a jumper/oodie and then put the heating on but this hasn't changed really since moving (lived in the newer house over summer so no heating needed for months!) Anyway 40 days G&E based on actual readings has amounted to £109 which includes the standing charge. I can only put this down to no cooker or dishwasher and using the shower for less time due to the water pressure. I thought it was worth sharing as even the little things will add up (same tariff for over a year - variable)
